Minor Key Symphany

Got a postcard, a postcard from my better place
And it read, "I wish you were here,I wish you were"
And the soundtrack, the soundtrack from a better night
And it's sang "I wish you were here
You should have stayed here"
As life leaves my eyes I realize I must have died
Looks like I didn't make it through the night
I never got to say good-bye
I'll never get to say anything at all again to a world
That barely knew I was alive
Sing a requiem for me
Make it sad, but sweet
A song about release
A minor key symphony
Found a letter, a letter from my dear old friend
And it said, "I wish you were here,
I wish you were"
And a prayer, a prayer in a familiar voice
And she wept, "I wish you were here,
Why can't you be here?"
As life leaves my eyes I realize I must have died
Looks like I didn't make it through the night
I never got to say good-bye
I'll never get to say anything at all again to a world
That barely knew I was alive
Sing a requiem for me
Make it sad, but sweet
A song about release
A minor key symphony
I got your flowers today
So perfectly arranged
With a card attached, says
"So sorry you could not stay"
They came a little too late
I had to wait till they died
There's no tears up here
But I'm sure that I would have cried
To everyone I've loved
To all those who once knew me
I never meant to leave
I never got to say good-bye
I'll never get to say anything at all again to a world
That barely knew I was alive
Sing a requiem for me
Make it sad, but sweet
A song about release
A minor key symphony
Sing a requiem for me
Make it sad, but sweet
A song about release
A minor key symphony
